[b:9d60f8d09e]PUBLIC HEALTH WARNING:
CHRISTOPHER HANSARD COULD SERIOUSLY DAMAGE YOUR HEALTH[/b:9d60f8d09e]
[b:9d60f8d09e]To summarise the main allegations of sexual abuse by Christopher Hansard:[/b:9d60f8d09e]
“When he (Christopher Hansard) was accused some years back of sexually abusing some female clients he brought on board a specialist in abuse.” DORJE
“I'm adding to this thread because I have known Chris (Christopher Hansard) for a long time and sadly have met many people deeply hurt and disturbed by him. This was the same in NZ as in the UK although he wasn't doing medicine in NZ. His process is abuse - sexual, physical and emotional. Bear in mind that abusers do choose and coach their victims carefully. He leaves his victims very confused and disoriented. Many have needed a lot of professional help to recover.” DORJE
“Over the years I have met one woman who claimed he (Christopher Hansard) raped her. I read her account and believed it. He was treating her for childhood sexual abuse.
I have met another six women who claimed he (Christopher Hansard) exhibited inappropriate sexual behaviour toward them.” DORJE
“Sexual impropriety, yes. I know people who were fondled and mislead.” HDM
“He (Christopher Hansard) behaves oddly, as shamans and teachers can, but the proof is in his behaviour, which is cruel, self-serving, duplicitous and mocking. I've seen him in action rather a lot. Not a true teacher, but certainly was for a time very rich!!” HDM
“My colleague on this investigation and I have extensive files which include statements from various people associated with CH(Christopher Hansard). Some were patients, some were fellow therapists, some former employees, some simply people who had bumped into him at classes or in the park. As I have already mentioned, not one single one of these people were willing to go on record. They were all afraid of CH (Christopher Hansard) for a variety of reasons. I hoped when I started this thread that people would come forward -- so that it would be possible to expose CH (Christopher Hansard) in the media and save future sufferers from his unscrupulous clutches.” PEMA
“I have been aware of CH (Christopher Hansard) for some years both as a professional and as a patient. I have felt drawn to him but VERY wary. He is seductive in both a sexual and non sexual way. Yes he displays inappropriate behaviour as a therapist and I didn't feel a benefit from his treatments.” ARCEE
“I did not consider his sexual gropings appropriate nor did I like the way he (Christopher Hansard) dealt with some other personal matters of mine.” ARCEE
“However, I also had personal experiences of CH's (Christopher Hansard) faults: being drunk at the clinic, being very scary when he was angry and being sexually inappropriate.” LILY
“Accusations of rape and molesting are not just being "a baddie". Knowledge of CH's (Christopher Hansard) lying and betraying the trust of many is not just being " a baddie". This man held the trust of hundreds of people!” MARIAH
“I am a therapist and know the accusations of molestation and lying to be true. I knew people to whom this happened and their degree of distress long before these accusations started appearing in public. They had no cause to lie. I don't personally know of "rape" but I do know of "strong persuasion". Coming from a powerful teacher(Christopher Hansard), I see that as damning enough, not to mention the simple fact that he was married.” MARIAH
“There may be hundreds, if not thousands of people who have in some way suffered because of his (Christopher Hansard) sickness.” DORJE
“I have heard recently that none of Christopher Hansard's apprentices or students are working with him any more. There have also been further revelations of sexual (and other) misconduct.” ATLANTIC
“His behaviour was sexually and emotionally inappropriate, probably in a court of law I could site sexual abuse.This is quite hard to write about. When it got more serious, I wrote him (Christopher Hansard) a long letter to try and get him to justify his behaviour,(as he kept telling me I needed a man like him,and the rest),but when it came to him standing by his behaviour or word, he just avoided all responsibility and acted like I had made it all up.” WISEDUP
“…especially since he (Christopher Hansard) had left another victim in Canada who sounded to be even less able to defend herself than I was as she had earlier abuse issues, it was easy for Chris to discredit her.” WISEDUP
“I mean, we are talking about illegal behaviour here. I had no idea of how extensive his appalling behaviour had been.” WISEDUP
“Rest assured that there are individuals that were closely associated with Christopher Hansard and have first hand knowledge of his gross sexual misconduct, lack of integrity and compassion who are watching this site.
I personally have no fear to tell my story to stop any other woman being abused by him. This cannot continue to happen and he (Christopher Hansard) cannot continue to practice. He can not be trusted to be alone with female patients or students. Any medical doctor would be struck off for just one of the incidents I am aware of.” CIRRUS
“I have also experienced his lies and his sexually inappropriate and lewd behaviour” CIRRUS
“I am glad that more people are coming forward with their experiences. Abuse of women patients is a common complaint but do bear in mind that Hansard (Christopher Hansard) has abused plenty of men as well. I hope that many people will benefit from knowing that this was a general process of abuse and not their individual fault.” DORJE
“The man (Christopher Hansard) has systematically emotionally, mentally and sexually abused clients on an alarming scale.” REAL-NAME-GONE
“The abuses we are talking of here have been going on as long as Hansard (Christopher Hansard) has been in practice in London – about sixteen or seventeen years and perhaps from long before.” DORJE
“Considering the scale of Hansard’s (Christopher Hansard) operation since then and considering that many of the stories we read here relate to continued sexual abuse we might fairly assume that his victims now number many thousands of women.” DORJE
“However, during my time there CH (Christopher Hansard) was sexually inappropriate with me and whilst I was traumatised and confused by this, I convinced myself it was a lesson. A spiritual teaching. I never told anyone about it.” CIRRUS
“CH (Christopher Hansard) did often talk in a sexual way to us making lewd comments which were inappropriate” CIRRUS
“It seems that he (Christopher Hansard) was using a distorted form of 'sexual healing' on some level. But he had no boundaries. It is not acceptable for a practitioner to use such techniques without the consent of the patient and without their understanding of what is happening to them. It appears many were left confused and upset but did not report these incidents.” CIRRUS
“I have had to live with the results of his (Christopher Hansard) influence on my own wife and the attempt to gain control of my son.” DIVORCED
“I personally know of strong sexual persuasion
I know of inappropriate sexual comments.
I know of inappropriate touching.” MARIAH
“I was never sexually abused by Christopher Hansard but know many who were. I will let them know that they can go to the police and make a claim.” ROSEMARY
“Hansard (Christopher Hansard) has abused people emotionally and psychically.” GONDOLF
“Victims of abuse need to go to the police in person or contact the inspector. There appear to be many victims. Sexual harrassment and abuse is a serious crime.” ATLANTIC
[b:9d60f8d09e]Please have the courage to come forward and file your allegations with the police. Please mention Detective Inspector Watling of the Sapphire Unit, Metropolitan police.
The more people that come forward, the stronger the case! We must put a stop to Christopher Hansard’s behaviour![/b:9d60f8d09e]
